 Tastes great but way too much saturated fat! May 13, 2010
Lets face it, we are at a crossroads in this country in regards to the food people are putting into their bodies. Obesity in the US is absolutely out of control. Its gotten so bad that most of the food companies have now agreed to cut the fat content even with the junk food they produce like candy bars and potato chips. You will start to see these changes rolling out very soon. So it pains me to see something like this. A lot of people will think they are eating healthy by eating Easiyo yogurt as most people assume that yogurt is healthy especially if they are making it themselves. Yet low and behold this yogurt is absolutely LOADED with saturated fat and I do mean loaded. 1 serving of Easiyo Custard Style Vanilla Yogurt has 30% of your daily value of saturated fat and that is only for a serving size of 1 cup. You have a 2 cup serving, which is a far more realistic serving size, and your already at 60% of the daily recommended saturated fat levels. To put this in perspective, my favorite yogurt is Breyers and a 1 cup serving of Breyers yogurt has only 1 gram of saturated fat for 5% of your daily value. You will find similar values for Dannon, Yoplait, Stonyfield, Etc. To put it in a little better perspective, A Big Mac from McDonald's only has 10 grams of saturated fat so 2 cups of this yogurt has more saturated fat than a BIG MAC. That is nothing short of insane!!
Look ill be the first one to admit that this yogurt tastes great. One of the main reasons why it tastes so good is because its absolutely loaded with saturated fat. Its pretty much common sense that the more fat something has the better it tastes and the better its texture especially with dairy products. So if you are someone who could care less about the foods they are putting into their body or if your actually looking to gain weight then by all means dig into some Easiyo. If however you are watching what you eat or trying to lose weight then you should stay as far away from Easiyo as you can. This is basically the most unhealthy yogurt I have ever seen and I have been eating yogurt for over 25 years.
Bottom line - Yeah it tastes great, then again I am pretty sure dirt would taste great if you mixed it with this much saturated fat. Do yourself a favor and stick with store bought yogurt or learn how to make your own yogurt from scratch, without having to use these Easiyo packets. Its not hard and you can make your batches much healthier than what your getting here. Again society is at a crossroads in regards to the food we are putting in our bodies every day. If nothing is done, the health problems caused from obesity alone will literally bankrupt the US health care system by 2025. This is a fact. Do your body a favor and go with a much healthier brand of yogurt. It may not taste as good but its going to be far better for your body!!
 Very Thick and Creamy Mar 06, 2010
Loved this yogurt. Takes a about twice the time. I used my regular yogurt maker and in 12+ hrs it was ready. Everyone that tried it liked it. Sorry to see it's tripled in price from when I bought it. I will not buy it at $15 a package. My regular yogurt is way cheaper and almost as good. I am disappointed though in the price increase.
 yucky yogurt Feb 04, 2010
I don't know what this is, but it ain't yogurt. Drippy and slimy and gooey. I love Easiyo, so this is a big disappointment.
